Installation with RAN-Simulator and ONOS MLB xAPP
This document covers how to install ONOS RIC services with RAN-Simulator. With this option, RiaB will deploy ONOS RIC services including ONOS-KPIMON (KPM 2.0 supported), ONOS-PCI, and ONOS-MLB xAPPs together with RAN-Simulator
Clone this repository
To begin with, clone this repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/onosproject/sdran-in-a-box
NOTE: If we want to use a specific release, we can change the branch with git checkout [args] command:
$ cd /path/to/sdran-in-a-box
$ git checkout v1.2.0 # for release 1.2
$ git checkout v1.3.0 # for release 1.3
$ git checkout master # for master
Deploy RiaB with RAN-Simulator
Command options
To deploy RiaB with RAN-Simulator, we should go to sdran-in-a-box directory and command below:
$ cd /path/to/sdran-in-a-box
# type one of below commands
# for "master-stable" version
$ make riab OPT=mlb VER=stable # or just make riab OPT=mlb
# for "latest" version
$ make riab OPT=mlb VER=latest
# for a specific version
$ make riab OPT=mlb VER=v1.2.0 # for release SD-RAN 1.2
$ make riab OPT=mlb VER=v1.3.0 # for release SD-RAN 1.3
# for a "dev" version
$ make riab OPT=mlb VER=dev # for dev version
Once we push one of above commands, the deployment procedure starts.
Credentials
In the deployment procedure, we should type some credentials on the prompt:
OpenCORD username and HTTPS key
GitHub username and password
Aether/SD-RAN Helm chart repository credentials

End-to-End (E2E) tests for verification
In order to check whether everything is running, we should conduct some E2E tests and check their results. Since RAN-Sim does only generate SD-RAN control messages, we can run E2E tests on the SD-RAN control plane.
The E2E test on SD-RAN control plane
First, we can check E2 connections and subscriptions with make test-e2-subscription commands:
$ make test-e2-subscription
...
*** Get E2 subscriptions through CLI ***

Next, we can check KPIMON xAPP CLI, PCI xAPP CLI, and MLB xAPP CLI.
In order to check KPIMON xAPP CLI, we should type make test-kpimon
$ make test-kpimon
...
*** Get KPIMON result through CLI ***
Node ID Cell Object ID Cell Global ID Time RRC.Conn.Avg RRC.Conn.Max RRC.ConnEstabAtt.Sum RRC.ConnEstabSucc.Sum RRC.ConnReEstabAtt.HOFail RRC.ConnReEstabAtt.Other RRC.ConnReEstabAtt.Sum RRC.ConnReEstabAtt.reconfigFail

Note: It shows the current number of active UEs and the maximum number of active UEs. All other values should be 0.
Similarly, we should type make test-pci to check PCI xAPP CLI.
$ make test-pci
...
*** Get PCI result through CLI ***
ID Total Resolved Conflicts Most Recent Resolution
13842601454c001 1 148=>308
Note: The Most Recent Resolution results can be changed. It assigns random value.
Also, we should type make test-mlb to check MLB xAPP CLI.
$ make test-mlb
...
*** Get MLB result through CLI ***

e2:1/5155 138426 1454c003 13842601454c003 138426 1454c002 0
Note: The Ocn value should be changed in time. It depends on the number of active UEs per cell.
Also, there are two more test Makefile targets make test-rnib to check R-NIB, which have cell related monitoring information.
$ make test-rnib
...

Other commands
Reset and delete RiaB environment
If we want to reset our RiaB environment or delete RiaB compoents, we can use below commands:
make reset-test: It deletes ONOS RIC services and RAN-Simulator but Kubernetes is still runningmake clean: It just deletes Kubernets environment; Eventually, all ONOS RIC and RAN-Simulator are terminated; The Helm chart directory is not deletedmake clean-all: It deletes all including Kubernetes environment, all componentes/PODs which RiaB deployed, and even the Helm chart directory
Deploy or reset a chart/service
If we want to only deploy or reset a chart/service, we can use below command:
make atomix: It deploys Atomix controllersmake reset-atomix: It deletes Atomix controllersmake ric: It deploys ONOS RIC servicesmake reset-ric: It deletes ONOS RIC services
